Hello Fam! Shout out to Erin and Matt! Congratulations on the wedding! I wish I could have been there, but just know I was there in spirit :)  Another shout out to Brianne Marie Nelson  who leaves on her mission in less than a week! Cray man! You'll be the best cutest missionary ever! This week has been RIDICULOUSLY hot! I hear you are all freezing in Idaho (aka the Promised Land) and we're melting! It has been in the high 80s and even up into the 90s.. It's okay though! I really don't mind too much! It's suppose to start cooling down  tomorrow  we hear so that's really nice!   T he coats and boots are PERFECT!   This week the reoccurring thought that has been going through my head is "you reap what you sow" and so the one Shawn Mendes song has been stuck in my head.. anyway.. You for sure see more blessings the harder you work. I've been able to see that this week! First off we had an awesome district meeting. I love

A Week of Ups and Downs

Hello everyone! Hello Everyone, This week has been full of ups and downs. Unfortunately, I've been looking at the downs though. But that's all gonna change here this next week!  We got yelled at and just verbally beat down. It really wasn't fun. It happened on two different days, too. I've been feeling sorry for myself which has just not made for a good week.   But here are some great things that happened this week! 1. We had an awesome lesson with Leon:  Brother Thibideau came with us to a lesson with Leon and it was the bomb. We talked about baptism and confirmation and Bro. Thib said the best things to Leon. Leon said that he is the closest to knowing that it's true right now. Hopefully he keeps studying and praying and he'll get his answer! We're gonna set up for him to watch General Conference at someone's house probably! That will be awesome! 2. We found some good potentials:  Some have even turned into investigators! I'm

I AM FINALLY DESIGNATED DRIVER!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! I just got my Tiwi card today! woop woop! Sister Winsor is happy too because she hates driving! Don't worry everyone I will take care of the precious cargo that is my companion. I will drive safely.  I honestly cannot remember what happened this week except for exchanges.. If I didn't write in my journal every night I wouldn't remember anything that has happened on my mission. Sorry if this email is lame.  Sister Reddish and I drove to Kirtland  Wednesday  morning. I was sad the whole time but it's fine because we distracted ourselves by singing songs by One Direction. Then Sister Reddish went to the trainer's meeting and I chilled with Sister Warren (yay!) and Sister Winsor (my new comp) and like a thousand other missionaries. It was a good time! Then Sister Reddish and I had to say goodbye after we ate at Panera and I bawled like a little baby. I miss her a lot. I've only cried like

Transfer Week

Hello Everyone! First things first, I'm staying in Youngstown! And Sister Windsor is going to be my new comp! She just trained Sister Warren (my MTC companion)!  I'm really excited! Sister Reddish is shotgun training in Elyria! These are her last two transfers, too! She is just really good at training I guess! haha! I'm really sad to see her go! She's just one of my favorite people I've ever met in my whole life and I'm really grateful to the things that she has taught me and for the great friend she has been to me! But luckily I'll see her again because we're both going to BYUI! And our houses are only like an hour and a half from one another! I'm really sad to see her go, but I know she'll be awesome there! She's just the best! We drove to Cleveland yesterday and I got to hang out with the STLs there. That was fun! I learned a lot! Sister Reddish and I always get told we look like twins and there is a picture that we kind of
